Literary fiction. From an author based in Argentina, and translated from Spanish. Short stories. Mostly quite dark. Some drift towards, and some into, the fantastical. Abducted children who mysteriously return, sort of. Teen Ouija board sessions gone awry. A family whose neighbourhood mistreats a homeless man and then becomes terribly unlucky. A tired ghost in a hotel. A dead rock star and his most disturbing fans. Vivid, sometimes grotesque writing. Inventive stories. Very smoothly readable. Quite enjoyed this collection.
